Devin Or Xavier Chapter 47
EMILY'S POV Pretending to be asleep hasn't been the easiest job. It hurts my eyes that I keep forcing them close when all they want to do is gaze at nature's smokefall. I rolled to the side of my bed and remained under the blanket. It was cold outside and I could feel it from the window. Xavier left the window open and I couldn't close it because I was pretending to be asleep. I was trying my best to avoid any conversation with Xavier because I didn't have the balls to explain what happened with Nigel. I knew he was not going to ask me anything yet but the thought of what was going through his mind was enough to make me nervous. "I'm coming," Xavier replied to his name. He stood up from his reading table and stormed out to answer dad. Dad called from the door saying there was someone outside for him. I honestly didn't have so much energy to think or be curious. Ordinarily, if I wasn't pretending to be asleep, I would have asked Xavier who he was expecting. I didn'
Devin Or Xavier Chapter 48
I woke up feeling slightly tired. Last night was a long night with bad dreams having me wake up at intervals. Saturdays are always stressful with mom asking me to help her out in her small garden. I pushed the blanket out of my face and yawned, I turned to the side of my bed and found Xavier’s bed empty. Lord knows how tough it has been for me since that night. I’ve tried to see if I can remember the details of what really happened but all I remember is getting drunk, I do not want to keep thinking of it, it's crazy that whenever I try to remember, it's Xavier's fuming eyes and the way he carried me I can remember. I also remember Devin's cologne and his arms wrapped around me. I can't seem to think of anything else. I finally got the courage to leave my room since I woke up. I have to help mom in the garden, she loves it when I do. I'm sure she must have begun before I get there but I can join her in making breakfast. I get my robe and wore it over my single
Devin Or Xavier Chapter 49
It was sunset and I was still sitting in uncomfortable silence with Xavier. He spent his entire day watching boring TV shows and playing video games. I had no idea if he had lunch, I only know he had some pancakes in the morning. I stole glances at his face whenever he was not looking, he had no idea how it was killing me to be ignored. I've never had Xavier ignore me this way before, he always played silly pranks and although they were all annoying, it made us bond. His eyes flickered to me and he turned his face the moment my eyes held his. My phone jittered in my hands and I accepted the call, it was mom. "Hi, mom." "Emily. How are you? How's your brother?" I looked at him, "he's fine. I am too, You and dad have been out all day." "Yeah, we didn't want to disturb your sleep." "Oh." Not sure of what to say, I grinned and moved my fingers through my hair and waited in silent. "Your dad and I won't be coming home tonight." "Why n
Devin Or Xavier Chapter 50
Xavier knows how to ask the most annoying questions. I wasn't even sneaking around, I just wanted to check what it was. He was the one sneaking around and stalking me. I flung open the door and turned to my bed. I forced my eyes to close, I was trying hard to sleep but the moment I opened my eyes, I met Xavier's stare on me. His eyes were fixed on my face and I just fretted. A furrow appeared on my forehead but he didn't move, he just kept staring. I wasn't looking attractive, I knew because I was always conscious whenever he was close to me. I still had dark circles beneath my eyes because I cried for nothing earlier today. I wouldn't really say it was nothing, my feelings can't be regarded as nothing. I just had a mood swing that got triggered by speaking to James. Why the hell is Xavier staring at me like that? "Cunt," I cussed in an undertone. I used my blanket to cover my face and shortly after that, I fell asleep under the blanket. Now I was d

I woke up to the sunlight blocking my eye. Fuck it, where I laid was close to the window. Monday morning and all I could think of was to get ready for school. I got into the bathroom and kicked life into the shower. I poured some shampoo into my hands and washed my hair. I loved the floral scent of the shampoo, it made me smell so feminine. When I finished bathing, I got dressed and was about to sneak out of the house. I couldn't afford to wait for Xavier when he's been acting strange. I'd rather walk to school than be stuck with him in his truck, wondering if I should ask him what was wrong with him. I was about to open the door when my mother walked in from her room."Oh, mom." "Hi sweetheart, missed you." She pulled me into a hug and brushed my hair with her fingers. "You smell nice." "Thank you," I smiled back. That was the perfect compliment to get on a Monday morning. "I—" "Where's Xavier?"Oh, Christ. I really hoped she didn't ask. "
Devin Or Xavier Chapter 52
I didn't say anything to Xavier all through the drive. The moment we got to school, I walked into the building and then to the class. Odd, but I kinda like it. When I got to class, some lockers were empty including Nigel's. I had no idea why I was searching for Nigel but a part of me wanted to know the intensity of his injury. I sat on my chair and brought out my cell phone from my bag pack. I logged into my socials and scrolled down. I saw a reel and since my phone was connected to my ear pod, I decided to play the video. I giggled while watching it, it was a video of my favorite tiktokers. "Look who's in school," a voice announced and a cheering noise followed. Not now! If I didn't know Gabby well enough, I'd have thought she was excited to see me but that wasn't the case. "Girl you've got really small tits, how the hell did Nigel enjoy sucking those?"At the mention of Nigel's name, my jaw clenched and I felt a rush of adrenaline.This
Devin Or Xavier Chapter 53
Mom wasn’t home by the time Xavier and I arrived. My face was still full of frowns and I was heaving in anger. “Hi Dad,” I said without waiting for a response. I walked in straight to the room and slammed the door behind me. I heard Xavier’s voice shortly after, Dad was asking him if I was fine and if school went okay. Guess what he said? “School went fine and yeah, she’s fine. Should be her period mood swing or something. " This boy was getting on my nerves and I could explode just thinking of everything he had done. I undressed and changed into a big polo. I found it in my bag and decided to put it on. Mom wasn’t back from wherever she went and I wanted to borrow her gloss. Not for today but tomorrow, I may need a gloss just in case I bumped into a guy again. The day went fast right from school and before I knew it, it was nightfall. “Mom, hi.” She walked in when I was turning some fried eggs into a plate. I was starving and the pizza I had

I figured I could use a set of shampoo that had a fresh mint scent. I picked it up and walked into the bathroom. I was going to run a quick bath because I needed to get to school early for my test. I didn't finish up my assignment last night but it was the least of my worries. While taking a hot shower, I used my hands to trace my body. I pushed open the door and walked in on Xavier. I didn't want to say anything to him, not this morning . I took a step forward and walked away but gripped my arms and stood behind me. "Emily." My heart beat increased and I swallowed hard the lump that formed in my throat. I could feel him behind me and it drove me crazy to think of how nasty we could get. I tilted my head to him. "What?" He closed the gap between us and used his fingers to tuck back the wet strands of my hair. His touch sent electricity to my body because the only thing on me was the towel. "What are you doing?" I asked the moment I saw him starin
